Egypt

Egypt is also known as the “Cradle of Civilization”. Egypt is loaded with all kinds of tourist attractions — whether it's history, culture or the beaches, it has everything to offer to its visitors. The beaches of the Mediterranean and the Red Sea, spread over 3000 km, and the Gulf of Aqaba beaches are a major crowd puller for beach lovers.

The Giza Necropolis is one of the major tourist attractions and is listed among the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. Tourism is the core contributor to the Egyptian economy, and the cruise on the River Nile is famous worldwide. The Grand Egyptian Museum at Giza houses more than 100,000 artifacts, including the Tutankhamun collection.

The Great Sphinx holds Egyptian mysteries: when it was erected and the purpose behind this largest monolithic statue, which pharaoh it represents, why its nose is broken and who did it.
